The creatures in these books are not ones I am familiar with and that can be a risky thing for an author, as it can be easier to stick to those monster we love more, vampires, witches, werewolves etc. Moving away from the familiar can sometimes be disastrous, but this is a fantastic triumph.I found ...
**3.5 Stars**You know that feeling you get when you die saving someone else? Neither do I, but that is the purpose of the revenants in Amy Plum's Die For Me. They are good Samaritan zombies, taking the place of someone on the verge of death. When they sacrifice themselves, they can reanimate, and th...
Another one of those books that fit into the paranormal teen romance genre. Much like that of the Twilight Series and the Lux series. Girl meets boy. Girl falls in love with boy. Boy has supernatural powers. That being said, I enjoyed it for what it is. Much like of the Lux series. This is a fun a...
Fact 1: Plot is so common! A depressed girl meets a perfect, hot boy who seems to be full of dark secrets. Yet, with the lucky turn of events, they bump into each other often. Girl becomes obsessed with boy. Turns out boy is in love with girl. But because of this "secret", their relationship becomes...
In the City of Lights, two star-crossed lovers battle a fate that is destined to tear them apart again and again for eternity. When Kate Mercier's parents die in a tragic car accident, she leaves her life--and memories--behind to live with her grandparents in Paris. For Kate, the only way to survive...
Hmm...well, maybe it was the style of writing but I found it quite hard to get into. Add in a strange romance in which nothing romantic really happened until right at the end and we never really learned why he started following her in the first place. Then add in the fact that it was 341 pages long ...
There were a few Twilight elements here - but much more effectively portrayed. The writing's solid and the world-building is fabulous. This one reads very much like a stand alone story, so I'm intrigued about where the second will go.
For some reason, Die For Me seemed to take forever to read. Not because of the book, though. Oh no! But because my crazy head insisted on messing about and, at every bit of dialogue spoken by one of the revenants, reading in a French accent. Every darn thing Vincent said sounded in my head like a ba...
My suspension of disbelief was broken a little by native Parisians staying in Paris during August (particularly when they have a country home) or that the annual migration wouldn't rate a minor mention in the story. Most of the story takes place during the summer and autumn. After their parents ...
Wasn't a fan of this. The story in a nutshell is: Kate has been orphaned and moves to Paris with her sister Georgia to live with their grandparents. She's depressed and one day while wallowing in despair runs across Vincent and his crew. Vincent is immediately drawn to her. He is of course beautiful...
